Those were difficult hours for Radamel Falcao. The Colombian Galatasaray star suffered a facial fracture after a collision with a teammate during training in Turkey and had to undergo immediate surgery. After a head clash with his teammate Kerem Akturkoglu in practice, the Colombian striker was diagnosed with a fracture in the bones of his face, for which he had to undergo surgery.

Players who suffered a head-on collision during training were unable to complete practice. Both were sent to the hospital, where the pertinent studies were carried out, which revealed Falcao's injury and Kerem Akturkoglu's trauma. “With my battle partner, Lorelei. We carry on my love. Thank God everything went well. Thank you very much for the messages and prayers. Thanks to Liv hospital, Dr. Yener Meral Ince, and Dr. Zeynep Sevim for their services. The masked man is coming", wrote the coffee star on her official Instagram account.

The 35-year-old Colombian attacker arrived at Galatasaray in 2019, with whom he has played 14 league games this season, with a balance of eight goals, and the team's third in the domestic competition. No details were provided on the estimated time of absence of the former player of Porto, Atlético Madrid, Monaco and Manchester United, among others.

Falcao moving to MLS?

Falcao has a contract until 2022 and Inter Miami of the MLS has already tried to sign him in the last transfer market, however, the Turkish team plans to retain him. The forward has a market value of close to USD 3 million and in a poll conducted by Turkish media Sporx, more than 70% of Galatasaray fans voted that he should be sold.

The Colombian, who didn't play this Saturday in the draw against Karagumruk, has scored three goals since his reappearance on February 27 in the six games that he has participated. This season he has barely been able to participate due to physical problems that have caused him to be out for almost the entire season.
